  1. Honors ChemistryUnit 5 – The Mole Lesson 6 – Molecular Formulas Book Section: 7-4 Objective: SWBAT determine molecular formulas of compounds using mass data. Do Now: Prepare for Quiz 5-5

  2. Molecular Formulas • The true formula for a chemical substance is its molecular formula. • It is a whole-number multiple of the empirical formula. • The molecular formula of a compound can be determined from two pieces of information: • The empirical formula of the compound • The molar mass of the compound.

  3. Determining Molecular Formulas • Step 1: Find the empirical formula of the compound. • Step 2: Find the molar mass of the empirical formula. • Step 3: Divide the molar mass of the compound by the molar mass of the empirical formula to get a whole number. • Step 4: Multiply the subscripts of the empirical formula by this whole number to get the molecular formula.

  4. Determining Molecular Formulas • Determine the molecular formula for an oxide that contains 21.03 g of nitrogen and 47.97 g of oxygen and has a molar mass of 92 g/mol. • Step 1: Find the empirical formula of the compound. • Step 2: Find the molar mass of the empirical formula. • Step 3: Divide the molar mass of the compound by the molar mass of the empirical formula to get a whole number. • Step 4: Multiply the subscripts of the empirical formula by this whole number to get the molecular formula.
